Initial Installation

QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY

I

NTRODUCTION

:

This section of the owner’s manual is for the use of qualified technicians only. Fireplace placement,

hearths, facings, mantles, and venting terminations will be covered, as well as the gas and electric

systems. There are several installation safety guidelines that must be adhered to. Please carefully read

the safety precautions at the front of this manual.

Warning: Clearances must be sufficient to allow access for maintenance and service.

P

LACEMENT

:

The location for the fireplace can be along a wall, raised or at floor level, or in a corner. There are specific

framing measurements for each situation. The basic opening should have the dimensions shown below

in Figure 15.
The fireplace must have a strong and level surface to be placed on. The surface should be made of wood

or a non-combustible material, not carpet.

The

215⁄8

inches (549 mm) dimension

takes into account the 1 inch (25 mm)

standoff on the back of the firebox. The

framing boards may touch the standoffs,

but no insulating material can be

placed between the frame and the

standoffs.
The gas line,

” NPT, should be brought

to the right side of the fireplace. If this

set up is inconvenient, the electrical wire

and the gas line configuration can be

reversed.
The location should be chosen so the

fireplace will be at least 36 inches (914

mm) from drapes, doors and other

combustibles. The fireplace opening

should also be at least 7 inches (178

mm) from the nearest perpendicular wall

(sidewall to the edge of the opening).
